Benefits for health

Mandarin essential oil is very useful in treating digestive problems, as it has a tonic and stimulant effect on both the stomach and liver.

Mandarin oil protects wounds from becoming septic: it forms a protective covering on the wound, thus blocking the intrusion of microbes. Furthermore, its bactericidal and fungicidal properties kill microbes, thereby adding to this defensive effect.

Finally, this oil can also be used for its antispasmodic properties. It will reduce spams: muscular spasms for example (that give cramps), or spams in the digestive system (that can cause vomiting).

Emotional and psychological properties

Calms nervous tension and therefore is very beneficial to people who have sleep problems.

It is an interesting option for shy people, because it allows you to feel more comfortable in new situations.

Safety / contraindications

Mandarin is one of the oils that are safe to use during pregnancy, as it will not harm either the mother or the developing child.

Non-toxic

Non-irritant

Non-sensitizing.

It could possibly be phototoxic (toxic when exposed to sun light), but studies do not agree on this. To be safe, we recommend not to use it if you plan to expose to direct sunlight.
